Every Hero Needs a Theme Song

This was the plain truth spoken by John Spade in I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, and so it goes for audio books as well. If you wanted to catch the reading of Areas of My Expertise a little while back at Elliot Bay, but found the line up the stairs too intimidating, you can now get the same (albeit much more prolonged) experience for free in the iTunes store, complete with introductory theme song by Jonathan Coulton.

Seattlest used to wish that James Earl Jones would read us bed-time stories, but perhaps this will be even better.

Hat tip to Jason Kotkke.
